To those of you withyoung ones, please...just enjoy them!!! Cause when those freakinteenage years hit...you'll want to kill them sometimes...God, give me strength!!!!

I guess Iwon't be getting any scrappin' done this weekend... maybe duringthe week, if things calm down here a bit.You all have a great weekend and I promise I will be back!

Never forget the all purpose 'mother's curse' "I hope you grow up and have kids that act just like you". It seems to work, and it feels good to get revenge, even if it does take a while.Luv 'ya girl,Vicki

Hello and Thank you for the lovely QP. I developed an idea when mine were going through their teenage years - I think without realising it, a lot of teenagers act the way they do, in the hope we won't miss them as much when they are old enough to leave home...

Beautiful page... going to have to grab that one. Time for Eila to get back in touch with her creative side. I mean, there is only so much you can do with a 2 fake houses and 4 fake apartments, not to mention a cafe where you cannot gain weight... 2 farms that are too much work, and a mafia family where I have been killed far too many times. Yep, think it is time to get back to the real world.

You do such beautiful work Miss Crops. Glad you are back.

As for the situation with the girls... just remember the song by Trace Atkins... "you're gonna miss this, You're gonna want this back... you're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast... these are some good times, so take a good look around" OH WAIT, that is for the childhood years. As Gilda Radner used to say "Nevermind" ;o)

I hope these days get thru really fast!Have a great day stamppin with the girls... see ya in cyber world!

Crops Thanks for the gorgeous QP!! As for the kids--I do think it gets easier as they get older--but I still haven't reached that point either!! I just don't have any good advice for you at this point and was hoping you might have some for me--but I think NOT! hahaha! I pray for the day they realise they are doing life all wrong!! KWIM! love ya GF!
